Bot Framework: Using SIP in Skype bot

I wanted to know if it's possible to use a sip: or tel: endpoint in a Skype bot. So something like a hero card having a button called "Contact us" and the button having hyperlink like sip:[email protected] and clicking on the button would open a new Skype chat window.

I tried doing the above but the button is not clickable in Skype. So is there a way to achieve this?

Update: I figured out one bit. It works if I use skype: instead of sip: or call:. However, it makes a phone call straightaway instead of opening a chat window to chat. How do I default it to chat than a Skype call.

I figured it out. sip: isn't the right thing to use. skype: is. But using skype: would default to a Skype call being made, so you would need a ?chat parameter.

My code looked something like:

builder.CardAction.openUrl(session, 'skype:[email protected]?chat', 'Contact Us'),
